Common Groundwater
Michigan is defined by the Great Lakes that surround it. But there's a so-called sixth lake that’s critical to our state, too: our groundwater. It flows deeply through every community and to every corner of our peninsulas. Yet, we have so much more to learn about this natural feature.
Like groundwater, this podcast shows environmental issues felt deeply, widely and personally across the state. It tells stories around those issues and the solutions to them. It goes beyond the headlines to bring listeners and viewers something grand yet personal to us all.
Common Groundwater
After We Put the World on Wheels
It's Season 2 of Common Groundwater! We'll be taking this podcast on the road across the state to the places where the problems, stories and solutions to the topics we talk about are happening. Plus, we'll be leaning on you, the listener, to ask us questions and shape our discussions. We can't wait!

Now's the time to expand transit. Well, we at the Environmental Council would argue any time’s a good time. But with a rising cost of living, swelling support and major state funding discussions, Michigan has a unique opportunity to capitalize on the moment and reverse the longstanding trend of disinvestment.
Ross Gavin, the Environmental Council's urban land use and infrastructure policy director, has more.
